[OOC] Game of Thrones : The Pact of Ice and Fire (Always Open)

[Celeste]

@kingkonrad Oh yaaaaas. Mychel needs some of that golden rose. :3

Also, thinking of giving another character/house a shot. I see the Redwynes are already being RPed, so maybe the Hightowers or Rowans...?

[FourtyTwo]

@Celeste

Take the Hightowers if you like- the Redwynes aren't really RP'd but are played indirectly by me as a set of NPCs really.

[MrDidact]

@Celeste House Hightower is a good bet. You could always add in more Arryns too, give Mycel some siblings.

[Celeste]

@MrDidact I'm fine with leaving Mychel an only child for now, unless someone else wants to RP as his sibling(s). I like the idea of making an endangered main line of House Arryn one of the themes of Mychel's story, him being keenly aware and concerned about the fact that the "true" Arryn dynasty could die with him.

[Celeste]

Say... has it been established what became of Tormund and Brienne?

[MrDidact]

@Celeste Fair enough.

Brienne and Jaime married IC, but Tormund's fate was never elaborated on. He does have multiple children in the novels though.

[Celeste]

@MrDidact Yay, good on Brienne. :3

[Celeste]

The Tullys have so far been just NPC'ed, right?

(Pretty sure I'm sticking with the Hightowers, but I got curious :P )

[MrDidact]

@Celeste Mhmm, they have kids who are Tarths too.

And yes nobody has played the Tullys.

One note, one of the sons of Leyton Hightower's youngest son is the current High Septon.

Episode Things

DRAGON WIGHT

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- wait how does that even work dragons are born of fire

Episode SPOILERS

Dark Spoilers

I genuinely think for the sheer badassery, the sheer number of times "FUCK YEAH!" was yelled at my screen, it's one of the best episodes yet. Genuinely, for nothing but that absolute Hardholme-topping insanity.

Spoiler For Current Episode

Not going to lie, was a bit irritated at the death of that Dragon. Even with the Night King's magical spear and jazz, I felt like it was just a BS kill. Like, "Look at me, alt+F7+ctrl+Numpad 4 = God Mode and one hit kill." I wished he had wounded Viserion so that it couldn't be in the fight for a while, and instead they bring in the Ice Spiders or some other crazy mythical mount. Also, WTF is with only 7 damn episodes for the season and the next. I feel like it is being rushed.

Now that my anger is gone, cool beans for J. Targ and D. Targ. Hopefully he can become a dragon rider too. Though, I certainly hope GRRM finishses the next book so we can read the better version and see what is going on. I wants three dragons and three riders, no twosies... threesies!!!!!!

@Abefroeman

Episode Shite

It did feel very gratuitous - and again, them being able to raise a dragon as a wight feels... very hamfisted. The whole shtick is dragons being born of fire. Suddenly the Night King comes along and casually kills one and turns it to his side.

[Celeste]

The night is dark and full of SPOILERS

My only big complaint about the episode is the whole Sansa vs. Arya thing. I think Arya is being a big twat.

[Greenie]

The episode is out already? :o

[MrDidact]

@Celeste

Holy Shit

Indeed, Arya is being a huge bitch.

But oh my god, that was a fucking gutpunch of an episode.

Bah gawd. Wight Dragon?!?!

And that was a hell of a fight too.

I think for the purposes of our RP, the Night's King rode a mythical Ice Dragon.

[Celeste]

@MrDidact

SPOILERS

Gawd damn ice dragon, yo.

...maybe that Lannister ballista Bronn used will finally be put to a more... virtuous use later?

Also, Tormund and the Hound talking shit is something I never knew I wanted until I had it. :3

[Greenie]

My thoughts on the episode

Man this episode.... seriously I had my hands clasped and to my face most of the time. Man... I was SO NEAR crying when Tormund was nearly dragged away. Like honestly, my stomach is still clenching when I think about it. He can't go. He needs to make big babies with Brienne.

"My Queen." Bending the knee ... or hint hint I wanna marry you? Honestly it makes sense. What's the best way to get two kingdoms to work together? Bind them with a marriage.

I sincerely hope Arya has a point with all she's doing. Some hidden wisdom somewhere... but I don't think so. Honestly :/ I'm not feeling too great about those two.

Also........ dragon wight. Well, should've seen that coming.



Still, didn't get me as much as Tormund nearly dying.
